Excellent summary of an active approach that still aligns with the long term objectives of family offices and UHWIs.
Mike Cautillo@MikeCautillo

Having already shared what position trading is above, broadly speaking. I'd like to share some of the unique ways that I've chosen to approach it. When the majority of people hear "trader", they often picture someone staring at financial instruments/markets on a screen all day or that hop from one idea to the next in short order. Not so. In my case, I manage a portfolio of diverse positions according to certain existing or emerging fundamental trends, which could and do last years. In many ways, I'd say that everyone living life is in some form, a trader, insofar as that we're constantly making tradeoffs as per our choice of what trends we elect to or not to participate in at various points in our lives. Time, energy, and capital spent on one endeavor are not spent elsewhere. Whether we realize it or not, implicit within almost all decisions, there exists opportunity costs, economic or otherwise. In this vein, my trading accounts for much more than just a commodity or FX position. In my experience, my most meaningful trades have come from exchanging my mfg. business for dedicating my life to investing proprietary capital, a piece of real estate for BTC, currency for equity & vice versa, one FX currency for another, and perhaps most importantly, income for education at times. Opportunity exists in numerous places, and provided risks are reasonably identified, a well constructed position trader's portfolio can be liquid & outperform. By participating in an array of interests, I've found that trading one's capital, whether human or financial, can produce immeasurable insight & experience beyond that of the financial, that when aligned with purpose can yield fruit bearing trees for years to come.

What are family office target returns? What are their allocations to Alternatives? JP Morgan Global Family Office Report 2024 Key finding: Investment Decision Making: In North America, principals make investment decisions in 56% of family offices, while internationally, 26% use an investment committee Target Market Return: The average target market return is 11%, though some family offices lack a target return Annual Costs: The average family office costs $6 million annually Financial Services: Over 90% of family offices provide services like investment management, private investments, trading, accounting, tax, legal, estate planning, finance, and staffing Alternative Investments: The average alternative portfolio allocation is 45%, showing a shift towards higher liquidity risks for long-term returns Outsourcing: About 40% of family offices with $50 million to $999 million in assets outsource investment management, compared to 20% of those managing over $1 billion

@MrFamilyOffice Return targets without the context of risk? If you’re only going to target/state one metric then surely a risk tolerance is more helpful? Then the return is an outcome, not an input.

10 years ago Nvidia had a market cap of $10 billion. Since then, its market cap has increased over 300x to $3.33 trillion. Today it surpassed Apple and Microsoft to become the largest company in the world. There is no impossible in markets. $NVDA $MSFT $AAPL

@TihoBrkan @MichaelMcGaughy True, although management behaviour/culture can have key influence on long term outcomes inspite of positive business attributes.

@MichaelMcGaughy Great insight on management behaviour, but that doesn't make the business attributes low quality. They have some of the best alcoholic brands in the world.

Diageo, one of the world’s largest alcoholic beverage distributers, reported 5% revenue growth during the GFC (2007-09). At the same time, its stock halved. Is volatility risk? Yes, for most stock, it is. However, usually not for high quality businesses like $DGE.
